Two Minute Surveys
About The Two Minute Surveys
Posted October 13th, 2008 by Alan Levine
The NMC is deploying new web tools to solicit information of interest to its members. Our Two Minute Surveys are literally designed to take no longer than that, no more than three questions, and cover current topics in New Media. We are using Google Forms to collect/share/publish the results. As a member benefit, individuals from NMC Member Organizations will have access to the results one month before we make them public to the world.
Got an idea for a new survey? Let us know!

Daily Tech Habits
Posted March 21st, 2009 by Alan Levine
We have more and more technology tools and information sources that we touch on a regular basis for both work and to stay informed. In this NMC Two Minute Survey, we are seeking to learn which technologies or information services you use on a regular basis- the ones you have made a daily habit.
The survey will open for a week starting Monday March 23 and will be published a week later. This one is quick! We bet you can do it in under 60 seconds. Of course, we know that the NMC web site is a daily habit for everyone, so we left it off the list ;-) (image credit: Flickr CC Licensed Photo by lastyearsgirl)
